Taurus4x4mt's "Dirty Little Secret" - Crawler King

Well I definately love the Goat. Took her out yesterday on the rocks and it crawled 10x better. The previous day I stripped the rear steer servo. Put the locker back on the rear steering. Yesterday I managed to strip the front servo out. Now I gotta wait on the 4 MG955s I ordered from Hong Kong I believe lol. Hopefully I won't keep destroying those like I have the others. Which is 3 in about 10 times of running it.

you should be fine with those. compared to a stock servo those are pure beef.

Think it was HD's thread I posted the specs on all the good hk servos...

Is that a good servo? I felt like I stole them. I got all of them shipped for like 35$ new.

Remove the motor and tie a string to it then you and hd can run around the yard making vroom vroom noises

Taurus4x4mt · **Posted:** Tue Mar 13, 2012 6:25 pm

i dont know if its my solder job. it worked fine when i took it out but the black wire was about to come off the motor so i resoldered it on and 30sec into it poof

Savage03 · **Posted:** Tue Mar 13, 2012 8:26 pm

Hmm well by that looks fine and most esc's now have protection kinda hard to burn em up they even have reverse polarity protection like plugging in backwards so what you and hd got going on over there is beyond me lol.

hey now, i had nothing to do with either fires. I would guess you shorted out against the can.

Savage03 · **Posted:** Wed Mar 14, 2012 7:09 am

Well it wasnt a esc ay least

and it ran for sometime before crapping lol and I had a spare servo well not really a spare but the clod got robbed again but seeing as I sold the esc's from it its pretty much a shelf truck for sometime to come

But we run electric, so no vroom vroom. More like whirl, beep boop, squeel, whine.

Savage03 · **Posted:** Wed Mar 14, 2012 9:54 am

mjderstine · **Posted:** Wed Mar 14, 2012 4:14 pm
